Neem Aloe Face Wash — 100ml

Match the face wash to your skin type: oily or acne-prone skin does best with clarifying ingredients like neem and tea tree that control excess oil and bacteria; dry or sensitive skin needs gentle, hydrating cleansers built around aloe or rose that clean without stripping. Combination skin can use a balanced neem face wash year-round. Whatever your type, choose SLS-free — harsh sulphates are the most common reason a face wash "doesn't suit" someone.

Twice a day — once in the morning and once at night — is right for almost every skin type. Washing more often strips the skin barrier, and oily skin actually responds by producing more oil to compensate, making the problem worse. The exception is after heavy sweating (gym, sports), where an extra gentle cleanse is fine. Consistency at twice daily beats aggressive overwashing every time.

Because lather and cleansing power are two different things. Sulphates like SLS create big dramatic foam but clean by aggressively stripping oils — that is what causes post-wash tightness. SLS-free face washes use gentler surfactants that foam softly yet remove dirt, oil and sunscreen just as effectively. Judge a cleanser by how your skin feels an hour later, not by how much it foams in your hands.

A face wash is the foundation of acne care, but clearing breakouts reliably takes a simple routine: a gentle neem or tea tree face wash twice daily, a clarifying toner to keep pores clear, and an oil-free gel moisturiser so skin never overcompensates with extra oil. Give any routine 4-6 weeks of consistency — skin works in cycles, and patience beats constantly switching products.

Neem is one of skincare's most complete botanicals — naturally purifying, clarifying and calming. In daily products it keeps breakout-causing bacteria in check, calms irritation and redness, and supports clearer skin on both face and body. This is why neem has anchored Indian skincare for over two thousand years: it purifies the way harsh chemicals do, without the harshness. From soaps to face washes, it works quietly with every wash.

Yes — in wash-off products like soaps and face washes, and in balanced leave-on formulas like gels and lotions, neem is gentle enough for everyday use on most skin types, including sensitive skin. Unlike strong actives that need rest days, neem's benefits actually come from daily consistency. The only common caution is raw undiluted neem oil, which is potent and should never go directly on skin.

Yes, indirectly but effectively. Body odour isn't sweat itself — it's bacteria breaking sweat down on the skin. Because neem is naturally purifying, washing with a neem soap or body wash reduces that bacterial activity, which keeps odour lower for longer between showers. It's a root-cause approach: less bacteria, less odour — without masking anything under heavy fragrance.

Aloe vera hydrates, cools and calms — a rare combination in one plant. Its gel is over 96% water structured with soothing polysaccharides, which is why it instantly relieves sun-stressed, irritated or freshly-shaved skin while adding lightweight hydration. It's among the best-tolerated ingredients in all of skincare, suiting even reactive skin, and it layers under anything without clogging pores.

Yes — aloe is actually one of the best hydrators for oily skin specifically. It's water-light, non-comedogenic and absorbs in seconds, delivering the hydration oily skin genuinely needs without any grease. That matters because dehydrated oily skin produces even more oil to compensate; aloe breaks that cycle. In gel moisturisers it hydrates while leaving a fresh, matte-comfortable finish.

Ceramides are the lipids that make up roughly half of your skin barrier — the mortar between skin-cell bricks. Skin low on ceramides loses water fast and lets irritants in, which reads as dryness, tightness and sensitivity.

Research on barrier repair found that ceramides work best delivered alongside cholesterol and fatty acids in roughly the ratio skin itself uses. A '3:1:1 blend' follows that finding — it is the difference between giving skin raw materials in the recipe it recognises versus a random assortment.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is one of skincare's best-evidenced actives: it supports an even skin tone, visibly refines pores, balances oil production and strengthens the skin barrier. It is also famously well-tolerated, which is why it appears across our range at 2–5%.

Generally yes — it is among the gentlest actives available and is often recommended as a first active for reactive skin. At the 2–5% levels we use, irritation is rare; very high concentrations (10%+) are where some users report flushing.
